OMEGA BUILD SOON

And Happy New Year! So I passed my 2023 goal..... HOWEVER - the closed beta is very very close to launching. I just need to add a few final touches - so I'm gonna go out on a limb and say January it will launch! Now a few of us in the Discord have always thought the word Beta didn't make much sense. It's the second letter in the greek alphabet, but it's the last build before launching? Long story short, the closed beta will now be dubbed, the "Omega Build". Since it's the final build before release.

What has changed since the last update?

New Android design - now not just a single texture over the whole body :P
All cutscenes complete (in between scenes, not during)
Lots of bug fixes
Added a few requested settings
Better picture and video mode implementation
Speedrun mode is now not the default!
Some gameplay improvements
All music was finished by Phrakture Music, Lorn's Lure's contract musician
Better UI scaling
Hold Interact to skip cutscenes vs press
A bunch more things!

What's left?

Minor cleanup
Performance Optimizations
Steam Deck testing
Actually figuring out how to run the beta through Steam

I don't have a fancy micro dev log this time since I'm hard at work putting the Omega Build together, so I hope the lists above can suffice for now - let's leave things as a surprise!

Lorn's Lure is an atmospheric narrative first-person platformer with novel climb-anything mechanics and modernized retro 3D graphics.

Leaving his home colony while tracking a mysterious glitch, an android finds himself in the midst of a vast and dangerous structure, completely hidden from his people's knowledge. Unable to go back, you must keep going to find out where he is being led... And why he left in the first place.

Dark foreboding atmosphere
Retro 90s PC graphics, with a modern flair.
Uncover mysterious lore as you travel into the depths.
Jump, climb, slide, and scan your way around difficult challenges, using simple mechanics.
No "Parkour Ledges". Climb almost any vertical wall face using your pickaxes!
It's a tough game, but not frustrating! Mistakes are not punished by redoing lengthy sections.
Play fast or slow. Take in the sights as you traverse, or play as fast as a speed runner.
